25. Invite message:
Hi, ...
I was really impressed with your
blockchain project. It would be
great to discuss some new
marketing and branding
opportunities for (ICO name) if
you choose to connect.
Kind regards,
Ivan
26. Pitch:
Hi (or hello),
Thank you for accepting my invitation on LinkedIn.
After coming across your “ICO name” website, I wanted to reach out to you and discuss some
new marketing opportunities.
Progressively, ICO startups face more challenges to become successful. The general public
became sceptical of ICOs because of the frequent occurrences of scams and fraud.
So what’s your story? Does it resonate with the current market conditions?
I would love to share with you how our marketing integration boutique S2B could help you to
deliver your message to the market.
Would you be interested to schedule a 15-minute talk to share these and other ideas?
Thank you for your time,
Kind regards,
Ivan
27. Goals for the campaign
Marketing research, brand awareness, arrange at least 5 introductory
meetings with the decision makers (CMO, CEO, Marketing Director).
